old cars to buy by yahoo

Anyone noticed that the last couple of weeks, that yahoo has put on several worst cars of all time, best collector cars to buy now, and so on?

It seems that the writers are just not car people.
On one story about old Galaxie's. they posted a picture of a Fairlane!

Such is Yahoo, for everything. Just look at all the Mars alien life stories about rock formations. Down to the obvious click bait. Their articles at best are for entertainment value only.

I'd be shocked to see them turn anything down that they could post up.

A friend linked am article on Yahoo about a PhD's theory about life on Mars having been eradicated by nuclear war.

A third of the way in, they already parrot the common fallacy about man-made signals reaching the stars...

And then you get to the direct quotes, and it becomes obvious the guy is loony as a fruit bat.

Yahoo "Science" my arse...
